D-α-Tocopherylquinone is a quinone isolated from *Phaeodactylum tricornutum* and an oxidation product of α-Tocopherol (vitamin E). It functions as an anticoagulant and antioxidant, actively reducing cellular oxidative damage caused by oxidized lipids. The compound binds to a liver cytosolic protein (molecular mass ~40 kDa) and to glutathione-S-transferase (GST), which aids its transport to metabolism sites or excretion in bile.
